Aim:
Meta-analysis on the effectiveness of the autologous stem cell transplantation in curing limb ischemic.
Method:
Consulting papers relate to the autologous stem cell transplantation in curing limb ischemic in PubMed, CNKI, Wan-fang Data and VIP. Based on include and exclude standards, we arrange at least 2 evaluators sifting these papers separately, doing Quality evaluation and information extraction and then cross checking. Negotiate through a third party if any disagreement comes out. Review Manager 4.2 is used in Meta-analysis.
Result:
Involved 7 papers, all in English version. Patients involved all diagnosed as critical limb ischemia (CLI). Results show that no adverse reaction occurred during this study. Amputation rate in patients with stem cell group treatment is lower than control group (P < 0.05). And no notable difference in improving ABI (P > 0.05).
Conclusions:
Applying autologous stem cell transplantation in curing limb ischemic does not have obviously effectiveness in the improvement of ABI of the limb ischemic patients. But it can dramatically reduce the rate of amputation. So autologous stem cell transplantation is a good and safe choice for patients have no choice but amputation.
